Tankless Water Heater Repairs and Installation - Our Services

Are you tired of waiting for hot water when you need to shower? Wouldn't you prefer to have instant hot water whenever you want or need it? Thanks to the invention of the tankless water heater, you can have instant hot water in your home.

Installing tankless water heater has some benefits.

Energy Savings.

While a conventional heater with a storage tank heats water continuously (24 hours a day, seven days a week) to maintain a certain temperature, a tankless water heater only heats water when needed (without storage), thus resulting in substantial energy savings.

Continuing Supply of Hot Water.

Tankless water heaters have an electrical or gas heating mechanism turned on by the water flow, which, once activated, provide a constant supply of hot water.

Operational Savings.

Due to their increased potency, electrical tankless water heaters customarily cost ten percent to twenty percent less to operate a year than the similar tank type heaters, while tankless gas models sometimes reduce cost by twenty percent to forty percent a year.Higher Life Expectancy.

Since hot water isn't stored, tankless water heaters may be able to handle hard water minerals and sediments better than tank type heaters. Therefore, they're less subject to corrosion. As a consequence, the life expectancy of a tankless model is roughly twenty years, versus a life expectation of between ten and fifteen years for a model with a tank.

More Compact.

Unlike traditional storage tank water heaters, which, because of their large storage tanks, are awkward and occupy space, tankless - mainly electrical - units are compact in size.

Tankless Water Heater Repair & Maintenance

For you to carry out tankless water heater repairs, you have to address some common problems that affect both the versions. Among those most frequently complained of by homeowners are low gas pressure, insufficiently hot water and rust-colored water.Insufficient Gas Pressure

Due to the demands placed on tankless water heaters to heat water to suitable temperatures immediately and upon demand, lots of gas is used to provide that instant heat. To maintain the effectiveness of the heating system, the gas supply that provides the fuel for heating must be kept at high pressure. If the gas pressure is not high enough, the appliance might be able to provide sufficient heat for a single source of hot water, but not enough to provide hot water to multiple sources. Using hot water in the shower and the kitchen sink at the same time could overwhelm your appliance.

Inadequate Heating Capacity

Related to the problem of heaters being overtaxed by demands for hot water from multiple sources is inadequate heating capacity even for a single source. Sometimes, this is caused by the same problem of there being insufficient gas pressure to offers fuel for adequate heating. This issue can also be caused by improper installation that has resulted in the cold and hot water mixing within the heater, or only that the gadget's specifications do not match the heating requirements of the household.

Susceptibility to Rust

Finally, there is the problem of brownish or rust-colored water. Even with modern technology, there are still parts of tankless devices that are susceptible to rust. To combat corrosion, manufacturers place 'sacrificial' rods within the heaters. These rods rust before any other part of the heater does, and sometimes when corrosion becomes too thick the rust from the rods escapes and enters the water exiting the system. It is a definite sign that the rods need to be changed.
